MovieHole has scanned an image from the Total Film's new article about Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim. Which is featured in the latest issue of their magazine.

SYNOPSIS - When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes-a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)-who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Umm...he's already playing Heimdall, which is in the same Marvel universe as Black Panther. It might be a little confusing for Thor when he visits Midgard to see Heimdall is Black Panther and vice-versa. :-P Plus he's too old to play T'Challa.
